Killian's POV:
I woke up and slowly slipped away from under the covers. I looked at Emma who was still sleeping. She was beautiful, well she's always beautiful to me.
I got changed and left the room quietly. I started to head to the field to start my lesson with Henry. As I approached the field I saw Henry talking to a young girl. He was holding Cobra's reins in one hand and started laughing about something. Who was this lass?
She had dark hair and was wearing a light purple dress. He was quite fancy. Henry saw me and smiled.
Henry: "Hey"
Killian: "Hi, who is this?"
Henry: "This is Violet"
Violet: "My father is Sir Morgan"
Killian: "Ah...I have heard of him"
Violet: "And your Henry's dad?"
There was a pause. I didn't know what to say. I did think of Henry like a son but I could never replace his father.
Henry: "Yeah"
I was a little shocked but at the same time I felt happy. Did this mean he thought of me like a dad too?
Violet: "And you're teaching him how to ride?"
Killian: "Aye, he's a fast learner too"
Violet: "Would you mind if I stayed and watched?"
Killian: "I'm ok with it"
Henry: "That'd be great!"
I could see that Henry was a bit nervous. But he still carried on with the lesson.
Emma's POV:
I woke up and got changed. I figured Killian was with Henry riding so I headed to the field. When I got there I there was a girl with them as well. Killian turned and saw me coming, he smiled and looked back to Henry.
Killian: "Let's take a break!"
Henry: "Ok"
Henry stopped and dismounted the horse. He tied the reins to a post nearby and started walking towards me.
Henry: "Hey mom"
Emma: "Hey kid!"
The girl came and stood beside Henry. Killian and wrapped one of his arms around my waist.
Henry: "Mom, this is Violet"
Violet: "Hi it's nice to meet you"
Emma: "Like wise!...so, Violet, who are your parents?"
Violet: "Sir Morgan is my father, I live with him in a small mansion nearby"
Emma: "What about your mother?"
Violet: "She died a few years ago"
Emma: "Oh, I'm sorry"
Violet: "It's ok"
She seemed a bit uncomfortable so I changed the subject.
Emma: "Do you ride?"
Violet: "Yes, my father owns a stable so I go riding a lot...I have a horse named Nicodemus"
Emma: "Oh"
Henry: "How about we wrap up today's lesson?"
Killian: "Sounds good"
Henry: "I'm going to go riding with Violet, I'll go to Regina's after"
Emma: "Ok...it was nice to meet you Violet"
Violet: "You too!"
They smiled and Henry grabbed Cobra's reins and they walked away.
I turned to Killian smiling.
Emma: "Who was that?"
Killian: "Weren't you listening love?...she's his friend"
Emma: "You think he likes her?"
He gave me a duh look. I laughed and we walked towards the castle.
---------------
I finished my last bit of makeup and headed downstairs. My parents and Killian were waiting.
Charming: "The carriage is here"
Emma: "Ok"
We all left and got in the carriage. Killian sat beside me on one side and my parents sat together on the other side.
The ride was silent, I looked out the window. We were riding through the woods. I looked at all the trees and plants. The forest looked really cool at night. Suddenly I thought I saw a figure in the woods. I looked closer and realized there was nothing there, must have been a tree.
We arrived at the castle and got out. I never thought I would return here. We entered and was greeted by King Mufasa.
Mufasa: "Hey! I'm glad you guys came!"
Snow: "Of course! We're happy to come"
Mufasa: "Please, enjoy yourselves...have fun!"
Charming: "Thank you"
We all walked past him and looked around. There were people everywhere. My parents left to dance. Soon Sarabi saw us and came to us.
Sarabi: "Emma! Killian!"
Emma: "Hi"
She hugged me then Killian.
Sarabi: "Emma, your so much bigger"
Emma: "Yeah well..."
Sarabi: "How far along are you?"
Emma: "Eight months"
Sarabi: "Wow!...well, it was good to see you but I gotta go say hi to some old friends before they leave"
Emma: "But it just started"
Sarabi: "I know"
She smiled and left.
Killian and I decided to dance. After a few songs I felt someone tap my shoulder. A tall man with short black hair and really dark eyes stood in front of me.
Man: "Mine if I bud in?"
Killian: "Sure"
He said in a very awkward and hesitate way. I could tell he wasn't ok with this but I gave him a reassuring look. Killian stepped away but never took his eyes off us. The man started dancing with me.
Emma: "So, do you have a name?"
Man: "This is quite the party, how did you get invited?"
I ignored the fact that he ignored the question.
Emma: "Yeah...I had helped King Mufasa and he helped me"
Man: "Oh, with what?"
Emma: "Does it matter?"
Man: "Of course not, just making conversation"
Emma: "So who are you?"
Man: "Does it matter?"
Emma: "Maybe it does"
Man: "And maybe it doesn't"
I didn't know what else to say. He was stubborn.
Man: "So I can't help but notice that you are with a child"
Emma: "Yeah"
Man: "Boy or girl?"
Emma: "Um..."
I looked away from him and looked towards Killian. We made eye contact and I gave him a help me look. He started heading towards us.
Man: "Emma"
Emma: "Yeah"
Man: "Are you having a girl or boy?"
Killian appeared beside me and I stepped away from the man and towards Killian.
Killian: "What's going on?"
Man: "Nothing, just talking"
Killian: "You sure?"
Man: "Yes...I have to go"
He turned and left. As he walked away I wrapped my arms around Killian.
